if i were to soft reboot star trek's tech and sci-fi i would change it to the subspace wormhole system. basically a micro warp drive that stretches space and lets you step through
Something like that was even in an episode of TNG, "The High Ground". The handwavey "why it's not used elsewhere" excuse was that it's harmful to living tissue.
Good episode too, despite the script having quite a few "end of history" brainworms. I know some people complain that it's a little too on-the-nose regarding political terrorism but sometimes an on-the-nose script is exactly what's called for. And the main antagonist has that fantastic line "The difference between generals and terrorists, Doctor, is only the difference between winners and losers."
late reply but i saw that ep as a kid and immediately thought it was about the Troubles. really soured me on the IRA until I realized they were actually a good thing
i forgot all about the subspace teleporters though! it was scary how OP they seemed despite the super cancer. you'd think the Dominion would have no problem handing the tech out to all their slave warriors but hey that's Star Trek for you. everything is so self-contained until DS9 and maybe Lower Decks
The Dominion always struck me as more of a technology-scavenger organization. Not much R&D of their own, an "if it ain't broke don't fix it" mentality. Could be that no-one in their part of the galaxy invented something like it.

It's funny you mention the IRA analogy, because that's the same episode that had some controversy in the UK.

oh yeah that makes sense. kind of like Star Trek's version of warhammer 40k's Imperium
